One of the best parts about EPCOT is the festivals that happen nearly year-round!
The park is known for its four main festivals around the Arts, Flower & Garden, Food & Wine, and the Holidays. Each one of these is a fan-favorite event, however, the Food & Wine Festival tends to be the most popular! It’s in the summer, it offers the most booths of any festival, and there is a super fun concert series. Speaking of, we’ve got full details on who will be performing in EPCOT during the 2024 Food & Wine Festival!
A highlight of Food & Wine is the Eat to the Beat Concert Series! In the American Adventure pavilion, you can catch a fun show for several nights during the festival. There are even some dining packages that guarantee you a reserved seat and a delicious meal!

 9 Unspoken Rules About EPCOT’s Food and Wine Festival
Are you visiting the EPCOT Food and Wine Festival this year? Tell us in the comments!
I wish they would bring back the “Sounds like Summer” concert series. The cover bands were amazing. Some better than the original.
Yes!! We are coming again. But I haven’t seen the booths yet. Has the list come out yet? And I’m freaking out about DAS but we’re coming nonetheless
Hi Jillimae! The food booths list hasn’t been released yet since the Food & Wine Festival is starting later this year, but we will post as soon as we have everything.
